If set to NM_TERNARY_FALSE (0), the hostname can be set from this device even if it doesn't have the default route.

When set to NM_TERNARY_DEFAULT (-1), the value from global configuration is used. If the property doesn't have a value in the global configuration, NetworkManager assumes the value to be NM_TERNARY_FALSE (0).</td>

<td>The relative priority of this connection to determine the system hostname. A lower numerical value is better (higher priority).  A connection with higher priority is considered before connections with lower priority.

If the value is zero, it can be overridden by a global value from NetworkManager configuration. If the property doesn't have a value in the global configuration, the value is assumed to be 100.

Negative values have the special effect of excluding other connections with a greater numerical priority value; so in presence of at least one negative priority, only connections with the lowest priority value will be used to determine the hostname.</td>
